Words that mean it
Written by Grace
Preface
I've recently written a collection of poems and I would like it if you would post them on the website. They come in a sort of. . . Book, so you can keep them together. The 'collection' is called: Words that mean it.
Why?
Why can’t I not be useless?
Why can't I be bothered?
Why can't I be a rebel?
Why can’t I be a friend?
Why can’t I act normal?
Why can’t I just be who I feel like. The person who wants to take the knife out of the drawer. . .
End it.
Sorry
One sorry.
Two sorrys.
One sorry more.
If sorry was a word.
I’d say it again.
Once more.
Gone
Friends.
There, gone
Left again
The people you prayed
That would never go
But are then gone.
‘Friends’ is not a word
Then again, it’s not a thing
It’s non - existent
To nobody but the people
Who lost it more than once.
No
They beg and I say no.
No .
Makes you forget.
No.
I said it. I mean it.
No.
That doesn’t mean I want it.
No.
No, just no.
Just one haiku
This is a haiku
Just to add more effect
I don’t know, not now.

Leave a commentI feel the same feelings. I feel all those poems were already written in my head before you put them on the page. I could say, you took the words right out of my head. Thank you for the beautiful poems
Hey Mathilda. No, I have never written a book called "No Name" in my whole life. But plz tell me which website are you talking about. Thanks
Hey, Arya, are you the Arya who wrote "No Name" on the German website? I just wanted to ask... Greetings, Matti
Nice poems!
The first poem is so me. And also someone I made up so I can have a friend. His name is Zacharias and he doesn’t know who he is
These poems are incredible and hauntingly beautiful. I can sense a budding Emily Dickinson!
Good poem
That was a good poem!
Thats is a beautiful and sad poem. In a good way
This collection is beautiful and moreover, honest and heartfelt. I hope you are having a wonderful day — this set is quite sad, which makes it all the more alluring
